Question

What is the solution to the system shown?

Answer 1

Answer:

c

Step-by-step explanation:

Rewrite equations:

y=x+4;−2x+y=−1

Step: Solvey=x+4for y:

y=x+4

Step: Substitutex+4foryin−2x+y=−1:

−2x+y=−1

−2x+x+4=−1

−x+4=−1(Simplify both sides of the equation)

−x+4+−4=−1+−4(Add -4 to both sides)

−x=−5

−x

−1

=

−5

−1

(Divide both sides by -1)

x=5

Step: Substitute5forxiny=x+4:

y=x+4

y=5+4

y=9(Simplify both sides of the equation)
